Crisis in Mexican Situation at
White House Passes as Presi
dent Takes Firm Stand.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 4.—Secretary
of State Bryan, acting for President
Wilson, accepted to-day the resigna
tion of Henry Lane Wilson as Am
bassador to Mexico. The resignation
will go into effect at the end of 60
days.
Ambassador Wilson was closeted
with the Secretary of State for about
two hours to-day discussing matters
in connection with the administration
in Mexico. On leaving the State De
partment he said he had no comment
to make on any policy or proposed
policy of the President or of the Sec
retary of State.
He added that the President’s plans
for peace in Mexico have not been
discussed with him. The Ambassador
said he was sure the President and
the Secretary of State were actuated
by motives of the highest patriotism,
and that he is sorry that he can not
consider himself in accord with their'
ideas.
When asked what he intended to
do in the future. Mr. Wilson replied:
To Return to Law Practice.
“Frankly, I don’t know. I came into
the State Department naked and I am
going out naked. I probably shall re
turn to the practice of ’ aw."
Previous to his app dntment as
Ambassador to Mexico in December,
1909, Mr. Wilson served as Minister
to Chile and Belgium and as a dele
gate to a number of diplomatic con
ferences. He was born in Crawford-
ville, Ind., in 1857, practiced law and
engaged in banking in Spokane,
Wash., from 1885 until he entered the
diplomatic service in 1887.
No definite announcement has been
made from the State Department con
cerning Ambassador Wilson’s succes
sor. but it is believed the embassy
will be left in charge of Charge d’Af-
faires O’Shaughnessy, until it is be
lieved best to appoint a new Ambas
sador, probably not until after the
elections in Mexico.
Envoy’s Views Attacked.
Secretary of State Bryan issued the
following statement:
4 Ambassador Wilson’s resignation
has been accepted to take effect Oc
tober 14. The part which he felt it
his duty to take in the earliest stages
of the recent revolution in Mexico
would make it difficult for him to
represent the views of the present
administration in view of the situa
tion which now exists."
The contrast between the great
mass of rumors regarding mediation,
intervention, the disvislon of Mexico
into zones and the ousting of Huerta,
and the clear and definite word which
came from the White House to-day
was srriking.
It makes clear that the United
States will not have war on its hand6
as the result of the effort to restore
order in Mexico; that it is not going
to recognize Huerta, and that diplo
matic efforts have been successful.
It is not believed that foreign
governments have been sounded as to
the new policy soon to be announced,
but the optimism prevailing in official
circles indicates it would be satisfac
tory to all.
Declares Envoy Wilson
Kept Mexico in Turmoil.
NEW ORLEANC, Auer, 4.—In a
statement Issued to-day by General
Manuel Brito, former Governor of the
Mexican State of Campeche, Henry
Lane Wilson, American ambassador
to Mexico, was accused of being a
“right-hand man of the Huerta
government In Mexico.
"Ambassador Wilson has helped
keep Mexico In a turmoil for years,"
said General Brito. “He was respon
sible for all of my troubles with the
present government. He englneerei
my arrest on American soil when
Huerta was unable to have me taken
while I was on British soil.
Blames Tnvoy for Arrest.
"I admit I killed Captain Bonilla,
but I did It while acting In my of
ficial capacity of rebel leader in my
province. His sword was drawn to
attack me when I killed him. U
was not murder. It was an incident
of war. I came to New Orleans under
my own name, feeling that I was safe
from arrest by Huerta's men. Am
bassador Wilson brought about my
arrest. I am sure he will never oe
returned to Mexico City.”
' A hearing on the writ of habeas
corpus on which General Brito was
released was set for to-day before
Federal Judge Foster. The charges
against him are murder and robbery,
alleged to have han-ened In Mexico
Federal Aoent Gives Up.
The parole of G. Raymond
Matthews, special agent of the United
•States Department of Justice, who
Was charged with attempting to
blackmail ( neral Brito, ended to-day
and he surrendered to the Federal
authorities.
j. L. Mott, assistant to Matthews,
and Ernesto Fernandez y Arteaga,
r nT >resentative here of the Constitu-
ti nalist party, who were arrested

There is genuinely good furniture; and attract

A hint that may help is the fact that Rich’s§*
